Abstract
A device includes a memory to store a User Equipment Route Selection Policy (URSP) and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to: obtain network traffic comprising first network traffic and second network traffic, wherein the second network traffic originates from one or more user equipment devices (UEs); apply the URSP to the network traffic; and in response to applying the URSP, forward protocol data units (PDUs) of the network traffic to either a first tunnel to a first network slice or a second tunnel to a second network slice. The first tunnel and the second tunnel are established from the device to the first network slice and the second network slice over communication paths that include at least a wireless communication link from the device to a radio access network (RAN).
